Highway

A lot of people come in for the young ones. In our Vladimir Horowitz/Wanda Toscanini Horowitz Adoption Center we have everything: young, middle-aged, and senior animals who come to us in need.

One is Highway, a Dalmatian mix. It’s easy to imagine him as a youngster with his whimsical spots and sweet disposition. Highway is aptly named; that’s where he was found running, scared, and barely dodging honking vehicles. A member of our board happened to be in her car and was able to gently and capably coax him into her back seat.

Even after his terrifying ordeal, he willingly got into a stranger’s car. Everyone adores Highway, who we place at about ten years old. He arrived in very serious condition, severely underweight and dehydrated. Because he had pancreatitis, he was too sick to eat. Highway was never neutered and his hearing is poor. Our specialist confirmed that perhaps he sees a shadow or two, but otherwise, he is blind.
